My 15-year-old daughter is hitting the age of rebellion. I asked her about what she wants for her birthday and she directed me to a site featuring the Dresden Dolls. I checked into them and found this, so I sent her a link to it via AIM and then I sent her a link to this.

I find it funny that her "rebellion" music is doing covers of my rebellion music. Now if I can just get her to listen to this really loud...

My daughter is almost 14 and doing the same thing!
Gotta love this age for girls
I didn't act that way when I was 14...I acted that way when I was 18!

I was the same, Mum listened to all the rock songs i love and she remembers em, Im even into hawkwind which mum adored, and i like alsorts lol

My parents were into The Glenn Miller Orchestra, Benny Goodman, et al... So when I got into KISS, Saxon, Judas Priest, Motorhead and Iron Maiden, well it really was rebellious

And if any of you doubt Ted's genius, this is for you...

That clip of Motorhead with Girlschool reminded me of the tour I saw them on opening a show for Iron Maiden and the Scorpions...

I read an interview with Lemmy of Motorhead where he commented on Girlschool's guitarist Kelly Johnson:

Lemmy wrote:I got them on the tour in the first place and everybody else went like "ugh, girls" and I said 'fuck you, they're as good as you." Kelly Johnson, on a good day, is as good as Jeff Beck in his rock'n'roll days. She's a fucking brilliant guitar-player.

Yeah, Paul, my parents liked Lawrence Welk! I remember having to watch that crap every Saturday nite during dinner!
